Just A Kiss (Single)- Lady Antebellum

Metallica - Holier Than Thou (Song)
Holier Than Thou, the third song off The Black Album, is certainly much more aggressive than the previous two tracks of Sad But True and Enter Sandman. Although the aggression and speed of Holier Than Thou doesn’t match the first four records, it’s probably one of the more aggressive …

The Documentary by The Game was one of the best Hip Hop cds that I have heard in a very long time, when it was released in 2005 people thought that it would not be any good but this was not the case at all. It included the singles …

Calling you by Blue October
Calling you by Blue October is a beautiful song to me because it is talking about a person who is surprised this other person to pick them to go out with them. This song is also wonderful in the way it is talking about a person who is …
David Bowie
David Bowie is the very definition of LEGEND in the music industry. I have been a fan of David’s for many years, and I actually heard about him from his films, not from his music. The specific film being Labyrinth, in which he was one of the main characters, …
Lupe Fiesco Food & Liquor cd
Lupe Fiesco is a conscious rapper who got his start on ‘Touch the Sky’ by Kanye West. Since then he has been compared to Mos Def and Common and declared one of the most talented artists in Rap today. This is probably because Fiesco chooses to stay away from …
Glen Campbell: Glen Campbell Live CD
Glen Campbell: Glen Campbell Live was recorded at the Goodtime Theater in August 1994. I love live albums that let you have a feel for the audience and how the performer responds to it. I have a similar album back in the middle of Campbell’s heyday and …
Girlfriend by Avril Lavinge
Girlfriend by avril lavinge is a song about a girl trying to get other girls guys to date her and make them break up over the matter. Why you wonder she would do that well it’s because that’s is how life goes and she is only doing it out …
Men Without Hats (music group)
As I mentioned in a couple other reviews, I like dance and electronic music. However, at one point in my life, I had a love for eighties dance and new wave music. Now most of what I would hear would be from listening to songs being played on the …

Green Day - 39/Smooth
Overview —“ 39/Smooth, Green Day’s debut album, introduces the band and showcases their sort of raw and aggressive punk sound. Though I personally find the album is just decent for the most part, the band honestly does show me quite a bit of potential from this album and the …
“The Joshua Tree” - U2 album
Before I even knew the name of their band, U2 was already one of my favourite rock bands back in the nineteen nineties when I was a little girl. All this was possible, thanks to the songs on their album “The Joshua Tree” which came out in the late …
Train in Vain - Annie Lennox
I’ve liked a few tunes by Annie Lennox and the Eurythmics. I’m not overly fond of mellow music, especially by female singers. When my friend loaned me her Annie Lennox Medusa CD I didn’t jump at the opportunity to listen to it right away. In fact, it …

Toto (band)
When I was younger, even though they released most of their hits songs in the nineteen eighties, one of my favourite bands was “Toto”. How I became familiar with them was not through my parents , but I’d hear their songs play from time to time on the radio, …
Alice in Chains
“Alice in Chains” was one of the biggest bands of the 1990s. Some people said that their music was grunge. However, I think that their music was much more than grunge, as some of those people only say that because the band originated in grunge rock capital of …
Reba McEntire LOVE SOMEBODY Album
Reba McEntire returns with “Love Somebody,” her first collection in five years. McEntire co-created the collection with a few accomplices, including Tony Brown, James Stroud, and Doug Sisemore.

Album :Ozzy Osbourne - The Ultimate Sin
i have nothing but the utmost respect for everything that Ozzy Osbourne has done for the world of rock & heavy metal over the years. But being the godfather of metal doesn’t actually mean that you aren’t judged on each individual thing you do.
For example, i think his …
Till Death Do Us Part, 2004 Album by Cypress Hill
This album is a huge disappointment. I appreciate so many Cypress Hill records that I still, to this day, can’t believe that the band who recorded the groundbreaking rap albums in the early 1990s, the band that recorded Cypress Hill IV, Skull and Bones and Stoned Raiders, the marvelous …
Kunst, 2013 Album by KMFDM
I think that this album is one of the albums by KMFDM that you can listen to but I wouldn’t describe it in any ways as essential. This band is releasing an album every two years, and I’ve always thought that there might be the danger of them simply …

Can’t fight the moonlight by Lee Ann Rimes
Remember the movie, Coyote Ugly..? And the soundtrack of the movie that features the most loveliest song in the movie titled, Can’t fight the moonlight by Lee Ann Rimes?
Yes, that upbeat song from the sexy and gorgeous-blonde Lee Ann Rimes. I just can’t get over this …
Slick Dogs and Ponies, 2008 Album by Louis XIV
When this album was released many people were disappointed with it. To be honest, I was a little shocked when I first heard this record as well. The thing is, this album sounds almost nothing like the debut album by this band. Their previous album, released in 2005, sounded …
Led Zeppelin: Over The Hills And Far Away

Pop 1997 Album by U2

Vonda Shepard: Heart And Soul - New Songs from Ally McBeal CD
Vonda Shepard: Heart And Soul - New Songs from Ally McBeal is another CD that is exactly what the title states, selections that were used as part of this unusual TV series of the late 90’s in which songs were an important part of Ally McBeal’s psyche and therefore, …
He Didn’t Have to Be by Brad Paisley
When I think about all the single mothers in the world, I begin to think about my own mother. After she left my father, it was just me and my sisters and her living in this apartment that I can remember like it was yesterday. I was too young …
Animal Collective - Chocolate Girl (Song)
Chocolate Girl is a song by Animal Collective which appears on their debut record Spirit They’ve Gone, Spirit They’ve Vanished. Similar to April And The Phantom, Chocolate Girl opens up with a fairly lighthearted tone before the vocals join in. Similar to my complaints on some of the other …

You’re all I have (Snow Patrol)
You’re all I have is another good hit from Snow Patrol, and like Chasing cars, arguably Snow Patrols most famous hit, the lead singer, Gary Lightbody has a voice which is somewhat appealing. In most of the songs, the lyrics involve Mr Lightbody asking somebody for something, almost pleading. …
Megadeth - A Tout Le Monde (Music Video)
Overview —“ Just to make things clear right now, I’m reviewing the song and music video A Tout Le Monde from Youthanasia, not from United Abominations. So this is also the version to feature Mustaine singing by himself and not accompanied with Cristina Scabbia. I’ll admit that I’m more …
Elvis Presley: Back In Memphis
Released in November of 1970, Elvis Presley’s Back In Memphis is just another example of great rock and roll at a great time in history. This ten track album has songs everyone has heard, and no one can get tired of. Though it doesn’t boast some of his most …
Black Sabbath - Electric Funeral (Song)
Electric Funeral is a song by Black Sabbath which appears on their second record, Paranoid. Opening up with an iconic Tony Iommi riff which has a heavy wah-effect, the band goes for a simple sound, but a sound which they certainly make sound quite dark and heavy. Though I …
Biffy Clyro live at Sheffield 02 Academy
I saw Biffy Clyro at Sheffield 02 Academy on Friday 30th April. They have grown significantly in popularity since I first saw them play. In fact, in the UK, you can hardly switch on the radio for 5 minutes at the moment without hearing a Biffy song.
Since …

Pavement - Slanted and Enchanted
Pavement’s “Slanted and Enchanted” is one of the quintessential indie-rock albums of the 1990s. There is a certain rawness to the whole affair — dissonance, and fuzzy production values give this album a homemade feel. The lyrics have a distinctly post-modern, sometimes dark tone to them, while others …
Don’t Change Me For the Crime by Jonas Brothers
When I first listened to this music, Don’t Change Me For the Crime by Jonas Brothers, I thought I was listening to something really cool. If I hadn’t known this to be the Jonas Brothers singing, I would thought the song is done up by some indie type of …
